    Este artículo tiene como objetivo explicar los usos no referenciales delas expresiones referenciales a través del concepto de inhibición. Tomando comopunto de partida el referencialismo funcional, analizo cómo distintos inhibidoresafectan a diferentes tipos de indéxicos puros. A partir de este análisis, identificodos formas de inhibición de la lectura referencial: la inhibición temporal, causadapor adverbios temporales de frecuencia,y la inhibición cuantificacional, produci-da por cuantificadores universales y existenciales. Concluyo que la inhibición ofreceuna explicación sistemática de los usos no referenciales de los indéxicos puros, ypermite comprender mejor cómo ciertas construcciones lingüísticas modifican suinterpretación.

    This article aims to explain the non-referential uses of referential expressions through the concept of inhibition. Taking functional referentialism as a starting point, I analyze how different inhibitors affect different types of pure indexicals. Based on this analysis, I characterize two forms of inhibition of the referential reading of pure indexicals: temporal inhibition, generated by temporal adverbs of frequency, and quantificational inhibition, produced by universal and existential quantifiers. I conclude that inhibition offers a systematic account of the non-referential uses of pure indexicals and allows for a better understanding of how certain linguistic constructions modify their interpretation.
